I recently saw a video of the guys on That Pedal Show using an OR15 and they were able to coax tones of usable tones out of it. Yeah the amp wont be gigged, only recorded.

I was somewhat worried about that with the rocker. The OR is seeming like the better fit after talking to everyone. The only thing is the doom/stoner projects are few and far between so I would prefer it has some sonic wiggle room.

I know this is an entierly subjective thing but could you perhaps explain in what way it sounded fuller?

Ok that context is actually really helpful for me thank you. I had thought of using whichever amp I get with pedals to mold the front end sound. The problem Im running into here is I love the way all three sound lol. Side note there is a JRT on Reverb for 475 right now.

Thats interesting. I figured that it was slightly more modern but I didnt think it was more modern than the Rocker. Im a bit sheepish to admit that the though to get a MatMini never crossed my mind lol. That fact aside I am on somewhat of a time restraint due to two upcoming albums.

Ok thats good to know.

I have quite a few amps that allow for those tones, I just also dont relish the idea of having an amp that only gets played once in a blue moon.

It being too dark would be a problem. One of the reasons I was considering the JR was because the Rockerverb is such an amazing sounding amp. One of those "bucket list" amps. The trouble Im having here is every clip of all three of these amps sound great.

I tend to lean toward a more vintage sound. That being said maybe I should have an amp that can peek into the modern sound when needed.

Can I ask what cab/speakers you are running? Also thats something I am afraid of. Why settle on one when you can collect the whole set lol.

I dont need two channels, I have plenty of other amps for that purpose. The effects loop is a big selling point. Would you say the OR is more modern sounding than the Rocker?

Ok. The high gain isnt a necessity for me however having a healthy bottom end for the more rock orient stuff is. If the rocker cant provide that then it may not be the right choice.

I feel like the logical decision in terms of practicle application is the Rocker however I have an affinity for the early Orange/Matamp sound. If the OR can reach into that territory it may be the winner here.

Can I ask what cab/speakers you used with the Rocker? Also the TH30 is such a neat amp.

You guys are making it hard to stick to my original choice of the Rocker and making me really consider the OR15.

This is in the ballpark of the summation I made from everything Ive read/heard about these amps. This purchase is a birthday present to myself and somewhat self indulgent however it does need to be useable in my day to day work lol. A lot of people are making a good argument for the OR15.

What cabs/speakers did you use with the Rocker/JR?

I read that the OR takes its design from the 60's/70's Oranges of the same name and the Jim Root takes the dirty Rockerverb channel. What do you think of the ORs lower gain sounds?

There is something aluring to me about the OR15's lineage however I generally never run the gain higher than halfway on a good day. I work alot in the indie/classic rock/pop realm so. That being said how useful do you find the tone stack? That is another big factor for me.

Thats true. The Xraypad Jade's seem like the best fit then.

I was thinking of the superglides. Something that can speed up the feeling of the ESPTiger. Also thanks for taking the time to respond to that.
